My god that bass, that drummer, that keyboardist, and those epic horns. So good it should be illegal.
It could be illegal (today), but certainly shouldn't. But back in the day it indeed was LITERALLY illegal.
Well it kinda was. Underground Spiritual Game
And drew me to the Devil's Horn.
We shall survive Fela's bass, drum beats and guitars 😀....sickening stuff. Greatness in audio artistry!

Nobody can copy this instrument style of Kuti music
"Having helped enslave Nigerians during the colonial era, Fela believed that in the post-colonial era both Islam end Christianity continued to undermine African social and cultural values" - Man he was so right. Religion keeps dividing us. That never was Jesus' message
RIGHT ON......he really wanted to get the People to return to their old ancestral ways, not the Christian based religions......LONG LIVE FELA......
Prophet I tell you
It's true that God's message was lost throughout the ages because of religion, but true religion never divides the people. Imams and bishops through the mosques and churches did in the past and they still do it today.
I am a Christian myself, but I have equal respect for all the people with all their various religious faiths and beliefs, as long as they are all tied to the universal message of kindness, positivity and love.
@@lupebogi amen to that ❤
So true
Nobody arranges horns like Fela. Amazing endurance and concentration.The inspiration is contagious. Timeless genius. Almost everyone sounds like an amateur next to Fela. His musical genius is under appreciated because the righteous message of Justice and Freedom is terrifying to the colonial mentality.
Everyone got screwed by Fela
Dog eat dog , one of the best songs ever made by fela and his band
Dog Eat Dog and Look and Laugh are top-notch as well.
Every time I listen I am amazed. Such a band, Fela saw into the universe.
My country, Indonesia, is also a country with many islands and in each island many different tribes and faiths. Greedy monsters from other sides of the world have been trying to break us apart to get in and take what is ours. We are finally lucky enough to get a president that is smart and good. But greedy assholes that are still in the government and the dirty money folks behind them are still trying to create chaos or fear. Still using the same methods to make us hate each other. Fela's music and words are always giving us the strength and spirit to keep our guards up and always fight back as peacefully as possible. My friends and I fight with music. Not even shouting political messages, but through making platforms to show / making good alternative music (many times rooted in our own traditional music). All kinds of genres with all kinds of multi-generation audiences. And also through each of our everyday personal behaviour towards each other and others, as well as to mother earth. Thank you Fela Kuti! May your people have their true peace and prosperity in the near future.
mushroomtea Wow what a recognition
well said....Fela 's music continues to inspire , timeless...master works of sight and sound experience....
One love! I hear you. With time, we will conquer !
melancholico lkmmmftyyyuu
Amen
" 'the best band I've ever seen live...When Fela and his band eventually began to play, after a long, crazy build-up, I just couldn't stop weeping with joy. It was a very moving experience.'PAUL McCartney
I'll bet. Just listening is an amazing treat to the ears but live would be crazy. I'm sometimes surprised at who was influenced and or/liked Fela. De La Soul made an album with a handful of songs that sampled Fela and it was called Fela Soul. Clever name and awesome to hear his music sampled and reworked. Love it. I can't understand how more people don't know him. I wish I could teach a high school or even a college class just on music. I wouldn't need a text book. I'd teach people about blues and jazz and how they morphed into funk and soul and how they morphed into hip hop/Rap and classic rock and eventually alternative. I would teach the class for free I love it so much. I wish I had a 3 hour block on the radio on Sunday evenings on the radio too. Limited commercials and let me play whatever I want. If I want to play a 45 min song then so be it. I go deep into the music world. The so called deep cuts on the radio are onky about an inch deep lol. They don't even know what a true deep cut really is.
...the length of his pieces, @@erictalkington5674 - way too long to be radio-friendly (it didn't help that he was staunchly anti-establishment in every way). The majors tried to make him compromise on length, but Fela would rather die than dilute his music or message. Now we have the internet, radio isn't that important and people are finally discovering what absolute musical gems Africa has to offer. I locked on in the 1970s. Peace.
@@erictalkington5674 Fela soul?
Now you're talking utter shite
Rest in place.the Almighty baba
It took him almost 10 minutes to get to 30,000 feet. LOL
Islam and Christian are still "Fomenting regional strife".. his words were said over 35 years ago! Respect Fela
Fella kuti was so ahead of his time!!! Now that all black people are waking up!!! His music is more relevant!! He said "music is the future"
And music is the weapon
We shall survive Fela's bass, drum beats and guitar sounds 😀. Sickening stuff! Greatness in audio artistry! 😥
that bass line can keep me going FOREVER.....
I leave near the southern boarder of Brazil, and I can't work without Fela!!! Thank you very much for sharing!
Me too. Porto alegre
Me too! Salvador Bahia!
One of the greatest!!! We need this kind of politically and socially revolutionary music distributed in every broken black community of America, and every corrupt country in Africa, so that we can become powerful and united as a race again. Rest in solidarity, my Fela. 🇳🇬🇳🇬🇳🇬🇳🇬🇳🇬🇳🇬🇳🇬🇳🇬
Ase
That's a great idea ! ! ! This Afrobeat by the Black President instills BLACK PRIDE, and appreciation of black culture & perspectives in other ethnic groups. Jah Bless ! I particularly like the irreverent tone, & sense of humor. It's 'black humor' in a few senses. Bob Marley, The Prophet of 1Love, expresses himself more sweetly, like a gentle, loving poet. Fela is an insightful social critic & commentator.
This sounds like the song they play in a 70s movie before somebody gets shot.
i never get tired of this man music because it music that will always relate to the political and social as well as ecnomic aspects of a failed society
Dysfunctional is more accurate
On the 8th day, Man said: "let there be music!". And thus Fela was born...
THE SPIRIT OF FELA KUTI WILL LIVE ON FOREVER.......HE STILL INSPIRES PEOPLE......THE SPIRIT WORLD IS RIGHT HERE ......NOT OUT IN SPACE SOMEPLACE ....SO HE STILL LIVES ...RIGHT HERE AMONG US.......MAKE NO MISTAKE......HIS POWER WILL BE FELT FOREVER......HOKA HE.....
Great message my brodah!
Jah guide and bless Fela for the spiritual treatment gives me. Live on forever
We humans dont appreciate the living soul,but until they gone .FELA IS THE MAN THE MESSIAH SENT FROM HELL TO DELIVER
Fela Anikulapo Kuti is the best musician, ever born in Africa. Some white guys once said that his music is the best music they ever heard that came out from Africa. He is the best..
Because its classical music fused with african melody
Fela's music doesn't need validation from any white or black or brown person. It's legendary as it is.
@@davidkariu You said it as it is, I'm proud of you and your comment
@@cikemedia780 Thanks, brother...Love from Kenya
@@davidkariu Thank you too, God bless. Happy new year
Well, what else can I say... It's 2021 and I am here ruminating over this musical piece. When a super star like Fela Anikulapo Kuti collides with legendary instrumentalists such as Tony Allen (the drummer) and others, what you will get is a timeless piece of art. What more need I say... For even in the year 2100, Fela's works will still be ruling the air waves. Pure genius!
Amen brother👌😀🙏
JAH LIVE SAY NOMORE BLESS KUTI
MAN me dance to d is music all night
Gonna the days; may you live forever Baba ❤you always!!!
Fela Kuti = The most original musician of all time. #Authenticity
The music of Fela is HYPNOTIC..........
I do not find it to be hypnotic, at all.
From Nigeria straight to Greece.That is the power of music.Music is our weapon
Very nice bro
Fela come back, in us. If we don't stand for our right like you did, then we are lost.
Fela does not come from this planet.he saw things ahead of life
Stalemate I call this musical arrangement by Fela.Just listening to what bass guitar,key boards twang started.Then the horns.All adds up to an hallelujah.Fela was at his best!!!
God knows you did try your best fighting for humanity and also fighting against the oppressors yet, many whom you're defending don't believe in you because they lacked knowledge and wisdom....
Baba 70', your legacy can't be washed away.
FELA LIVES ON!
Fela is a great prophet African never had, and we will never have it, R I P Baba Seun.
I always think Fela was a graet man ...i love his music from the first time I listened ..was in august 1981..good luck Nigeria
Trance inducing GOOD MUSIC 🎶.
Fela Baba I love you more than my father. Thanks for the nice journey.
Fela, a legend live on
According to me, the biggest big band master and musician of Africa. Composition.
I think Fela was the BEST MUSICIAN EVER. Thanks for the Afrobeat, man!!! The Band Leader who was a MAESTRO.... Nobody even comes CLOSE to the Black President ! ! !
Villain in Afro Jazz and nobody’s style but Kuti
I wish fela is still living
Tony Allen is one of the funkiest drummers ever. Right in the pocket.
Yeah.. his performance in one of Fela's track called "army arrangement" was way too sublime. Fela surrounded his band with legendary instrumentalists. Tony Allen being one of them.
How he is simultaneously the best and most under-appreciated drummers in funk is something for historians to grapple with.
I like his solo stuff too. Haven't delved as deep as I have with Fela, but it's good stuff.
please, @@chiemxerxobi, as of today (27 March 2020), Tony Allen is still very much alive and kicking. Matter of fact, tickets for his 2020 and 2021 European gigs are currently on sale.
BabaStiletto wait for real??? God forbid what I said then, I must’ve heard wrong because I once heard news sometime last year that one of his drummers had passed. Thank you for correcting me lol.
True classical music!! Forever lives Fela. Forever lives afrobeat.
Thank you Eva and thank you subscribing to the Fela RUclips Channel. I'm glad you appreciate Fela's afrobeat, "Yeah Yeah" (y)

No mater what, no one will conquer the truth. Long live Fela.
One of the best in the African Music

Fela Kuti forever. Legend
From Nigeria straight to the world. That is the power of music and Fela Anikulapo Kuti was an enormous influence in opening up the musical depth within Africa.
16:23 ... Now that's a smashing drop in ..
Extraordinaire ! Fascinant et planant, et en même temps si dynamique !
Just how amazing would this have been live?
Yu yet to hear more original human being ever lived
THIS IS INCREDIBLE
Maybe I have said it originally Or someone else may have come to the conclusion. Fela Kuti is the straw that stirs the world's drink.
Facts.
A great musician! One of the best! Am afraid we r losing the legacy of this genius! YEAH! YEAH! Afrobeat...
Fela and his music express something important at his time. Something that was not just about money or stupid shit, but being honest and real.
